Abstract: A piston cooling assembly for cooling each of the pistons in an internal combustion engine is provided. The piston cooling assembly of the present invention, which directs a spray of cooling fluid, typically oil, to a selected targeted area of the piston with which it is associated, is installed, adjusted and removed entirely from the exterior of the engine block. The piston cooling assembly [30] is received in a specially configured bore [40] in the engine block [10] and includes a flange [38] located exteriorly of the engine block [10] to position and secure the assembly [30] in its desired location. A nozzle tube support [34] attached to the flange [38] is sealingly engaged within the engine block bore [40] and is fluidically connected with the engine cooling fluid supply to provide a supply of cooling fluid to a nozzle tube [36]. The nozzle tube [36], one end of which is supported by the nozzle tube support [34], sprays cooling fluid toward the targeted piston area. In an alternate embodiment, a second nozzle tube is provided to direct coolant and/or lubricant to the joint between the piston and the connecting rod.

Abstract: In a known circuit arrangement of this type, the primary inputs of the current supply device are connected to a voltage monitoring device which is connected with a control input to a voltage sensing resistor and is connected with its output to a signalling device. So that voltages at the output of the current supply device (6) can also be monitored for dropping below a predetermined value, a series circuit (34, 35) of a Zener diode (42; 47), a current regulating diode (38; 43) and a diode path (39; 44) of an optocoupler are connected between outputs (30, 31, 32, 33), in each case forming an output voltage circuit, of the current supply device (6). The voltage sensing resistor (18) is connected in parallel with an electronic switch (51) which can be operated by the output signal of a control circuit (55) with the phototransistor path (40; 45) of the optocoupler. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A water-soluble glass treating agent consisting essentially of, by weight: 55 to 80% of SiO₂, 19.5 to 42% of Na₂O and 0.5 to 3% of Ag₂O (conversion for AgNO₃) is disclosed. Also disclosed is a water-soluble glass treating agent further containing, by weight: 0.5 to 30% of Al₂O₃ in the above compositions. These glass water treating agents are of glass free from boron constituent but which function to kill or suppress bacteria and microorganisms and are low in cost because of the simple composition of the glass which is composed principally of three constituents at most. That agent which contains Al₂O₃ functions to increase concentration of Ag in glass and to decrease the deliquescent property of glass.

La machine a un fonctionnement intermittent, avec mouvement commandé de la bande au travers de la machine de sorte que les diverses étapes de formage, remplissage, fermeture et emballage séparé des conteneurs refermables s'effectuent pendant des arrêts périodiques de la machine. La machine se caractérise en outre par l'utilisation de deux paires de bandes transporteuses pour déplacer la bande susmentionnée au travers de la machine. Une première paire de bandes transporteuses (26 et 28) reçoit initialement la bande susmentionnée pliée (12) et forme partiellement et remplit complètement les conteneurs. La seconde paire de bandes transporteuses (82 et 84) chevauche l'extrémité avale de la première paire de bandes transporteuses (26 et 28) mais elles sont disposées plus bas que les premières bandes transporteuses. Lorsque les conteneurs remplis et partiellement formés passent de la première paire de bandes transporteuses (26 et 28) vers la seconde paire de bandes transporteuses (82 et 84), les extrémités libres non scellées (40) sont exposées pour le scellement et le sectionnement finals.

Date Jun. 27, 1991.A method and apparatus for selective detection of gases and vapors uses paramagnetic and electric dipole moments. An inhomogeneous magnetic field (31, 32, 33, 33') or an inhomogeneous electric field (41, 42, 43, 43', 44, 44') through the gas sample causes molecule enrichment in the acoustically sensitive range (34) of an ultrasonic resonator (1). The ultrasonic resonator has mutually opposed ultrasonic transducers operating as a transmitter (2) and a receiver (3). Because of the change in acoustic velocity, the molecule enrichment causes detuning of the ultrasonic resonator (1) and hence a change in signal at the receiving transducer (3). The method is particularly sensitive to the detection of oxygen.

Abstract: A process for the efficient production of Cl2 from gaseous HCl, using a catalyst (1) containing a transition metal oxide, an alkali metal chloride, and, optionally, a trivalent rare earth chloride, operates efficiently at moderate temperatures and without volatilization of the catalyst (10). The process comprises two steps: 1) a chloridizing step in which the HCl is contacted with the catalyst (1) at an elevated temperature, converting the transition metal oxide to a transition metal chloride with elimination of water; and 2) an oxidizing step in which the transition metal chloride produced in the first step is contacted with a source of oxygen at a temperature at least about 300  DEG C but less than 400  DEG C and sufficiently high that Cl2 is envolved and the transition metal chloride is reconverted to a transitional metal oxide. The temperature of the oxidizing step is increased over that of the chloridizing step. Preferably, the transition metal oxide is MnO2, in which case the MnO2 is converted to MnCl2 in the first step with the release of Cl2. The transition metal oxide can also be Co2O3, Co3O4, Cr2O3, NiO, Ni2O3, Mo2O3, or CuO.

Abstract: The process makes it possible, by detecting the operating temperature, to detect the current state of the spinning-ring/runner combination (4, 5) and to adapt the speed program of the spinning or twisting machine to higher speeds. The operating temperatures are detected by an infrared measurement unit (11), guided past the measuring positions of the spinning stations (1, 1' 1'', etc), or by contact thermocouples and are evaluated by a set-point computer (30), thus leading to a control signal for the spindle drive (22). The productivity of the spinning or twisting machine, for example during the run-in operation of runners (5), can thereby be increased. <IMAGE>
